Open Question: Comments on part of my first chapter?
The premise:
“Dolls. We are created to obey our master, to answer to their every whim. Each one of us is different; be it that we are made of porcelain, glass, or rags. We all live for the same purpose; to do as we are told. But what happens when a doll does not obey those orders? That is what we are here for; to reform and correct, to make your doll the perfect girl we know she can be.”
The excerpt:
“Annabelle, have I ever told you the story of why I created you?”
I sighed inwardly. Not only had Father recounted the tale to me hundreds of times, but I had been forced to listen as he gloated to his house guests as well. Still, I found myself shaking my head and bracing for the story.
“Well, dearest, it’s not exactly a pleasant tale. Actually it’s rather tragic…” With an exaggerated cough, he cleared his throat, then launched into his lament.
“Evangeline and I met by chance, as many young lovers do. She was gorgeous, like a spring day. The love that bloomed between us was almost instantaneous, and we were set to be married that summer. Everything went off without a hitch, and we found ourselves living on the blissful cloud of newlyweds.”
I wonder what happened to Evangeline. I thought as he spoke, trying to imagine a woman more gorgeous than a spring’s day. Images danced around in my head, though each one didn’t quite fit the description I’d heard so many times.
“Shortly after our first anniversary, we were blessed once more; Evangeline was pregnant. Our little girl was born that spring. You look just like her, Annabelle. Soft blond hair, piercing blue eyes…” Father paused for a moment, as he always did at that point in the story. After the fourth time I had heard the account, I began to wonder if he rehearsed the dramatic pauses and sighs.
“But our little girl wasn’t perfect.” He said, snapping me back to reality. “She was born with a terrible, terrible disease. The doctors assured us that she would only have a few years to live.” A desperate sob escaped from Father’s lips, but he steadied himself, his wrinkled hands gripping my shoulders. He smiled through his tears and continued. “Yet our baby girl held on. She grew stronger and stronger, my gorgeous little Belle. I suppose we couldn’t avoid fate forever, though. Belle was eight when she passed.”
I know this story so well I could tell it myself. I thought as another sob rang through the air. Easily.
“And that’s why I made you. Before, I had always thought that the idea of dolls was silly, pointless even. Until I lost my sweet little girl… Then I understood.”
Silence filled the room then, like a thick blanket on a cold winter’s night. In the blink of an eye, Father’s hands were cupping my face, his green eyes brimming with tears.
“You’re so much like her… Your eyes.” He ran a thumb beneath my eyelid. “Your hair. Your lips, your nose…” His worn hands were soft against my porcelain skin, and I stared unblinkingly at him as he wept. “You’re my sweet girl, you’re my sweet girl…”
All comments are welcome
